Colleges and universities all over the country actively participated, and xidian university won 6 national first prizes (including national excellent papers 1 article) and 5 second prizes, ranking first in the number of national first prizes and making a historic breakthrough. It is of great significance to hold this competition.
Arouse students' enthusiasm in learning mathematics. Improve students' comprehensive ability to use computer technology to build mathematical models and solve practical problems, encourage students to actively participate in extracurricular scientific and technological activities, broaden their knowledge, cultivate innovative spirit and cooperative consciousness, and promote the reform of college mathematics teaching system, teaching content and teaching methods.
Cultivate students' learning quality. The cultivation of students' quality in the practice of mathematical modeling is an important embodiment of the educational function of mathematical modeling competition. In the repeated difficulties and failures, keep climbing up, establish a tenacious will and cultivate students' ability to solve problems.
Contents of National Competition on Mathematical Modeling:
Competition topics generally come from practical problems in the fields of science and engineering technology, humanities and social sciences (including economic management) which have been properly simplified and handled. Participants are not required to master in-depth professional knowledge in advance, but only need to study basic mathematics courses in colleges and universities. The topic has great flexibility, allowing participants to exert their creative ability.
Participants should complete a paper (that is, an answer sheet) including the hypothesis of the model, the establishment and solution, the design and computer realization of the calculation method, the analysis and test of the results, and the improvement of the model. Competition awards are based on the rationality of assumptions, the creativity of modeling, the correctness of results and the clarity of text expression.
